VATERA
On arrival you will not know what way to go. It doesnt matter as the beach commands this resort. Its one of the best and longest beaches on the island with its semi-precious pebbles and amazingly clear sea. Left takes you to the busiest area where most of the cafes and tavernas are located and right takes you to quieter parts and to the very end of the beach where Agios Fokas is located and the ancient site there. Its spectaular views are worth the drive there - an overall view of the area.

After your drive past Agios Isidoros you reach the town centre where you will see its harbour area and square. There you will also see most of the tavernas and cafes. Away from the seafront of the town are small narrow streets on either side of the river, narrow town like houses with balconies and winding hilly streets - it resembles an Italian village. SERVICES:
A number of banks with ATMs / Post Office / Taxi Rank / Bus station / Police / docter / dentist / supermarkets / bakeries / shops

AGIOS ISIDOROS
A small resort that has a fantastic stretch of beach, not too long or short. Its unique soft white pebbles make the sea even that more aqua clear blue that is amazingly enticing. This continues along the coast to Plomari and further onwards to Melinda.
A drive along this coast is definately worth it.
A few tavernas and cafes nestle close to the sea with nice sea views.
